Instructions

Prepare the Cake

1. Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.

2. In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar for at least 5 minutes until pale and frothy.

3. Blend the walnuts into a fine powder. Add them with the almond flour to the yolk mixture.

4. Gently fold in the egg whites, then add the melted butter. Mix until smooth.

5. Pour into two greased and floured round cake pans.

6. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 45 minutes, until a knife comes out clean.

7. Let cool slightly and carefully remove from pans.

Note: Grease and flour pans well. Do not bake as one large cake, as it may crumble.
